Before you go
What the guide flags for families.
- Seven Mile Beach has calm, shallow water and lifeguards at some hotel beaches; the public beach has few lifeguards, so keep children within reach. (Kids)
- Stingray City works for children over about 6 in a life vest, on a small-group boat with shade. (Kids)
- Camana Bay has a safe pedestrian town centre with a cinema, a playground and a splash fountain area (check current facilities). (Kids)
